SSL Certificates
SX II uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol for any encrypted
network traffic between itself and a connected client.
When establishing a connection, SX II has to identify itself to a client
using a cryptographic certificate.
It is possible to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and install
a certificate signed by the Certificate Authority (CA) on the SX II. Both
SHA-1 and SHA-2 CSRs are supported.
The CA verifies the identity of the originator of the CSR.
The CA then returns a certificate containing its signature to the
originator. The certificate, bearing the signature of the well-known CA, is
used to vouch for the identity of the presenter of the certificate.
Important: Make sure your SX II date/time is set correctly.
When a self-signed certificate is created, the SX II date and time are
used to calculate the validity period. If the SX II date and time are not
accurate, the certificate's valid from - to date range may be incorrect,
causing certificate validation to fail. See Configuring Date/Time Settings.
Note: The CSR must be generated on the SX II.
Note: When upgrading firmware, the active certificate and CSR are not
replaced.
To create and install a SSL certificate:
1. Select Security > Certificate.
